This innovative sensor technology – called Series 4 (S4) second generation – is being integrated into the company’s  A4 and B4 car detection devices, as well as in A4-H and B4-H truck detection devices.

Now part of Paradox Engineering, Tinynode says its solutions provide a simple, cost-effective and reliable way to detect if a parking lot is free or occupied by a vehicle, offering data reliability exceeding 98%. Installed above or flush with the ground, the products rely on a patented, lowest-power, multi-hop, self-configuring radio communication protocol to build effective and secure wireless networks enabling a number of parking-related applications.

    For many, Ethernet- and IP-based networks are the cast-iron solution to ITS's communications needs. However, there remain issues from manufacturer to manufacturer with interpretation of what are supposed to be common standards The 'promise' of Ethernet was that different devices such as IP video cameras and traffic signals could be easily integrated into communications networks, simplifying the process of transporting data over copper, fibre or wirelessly. However, although Ethernet devices have come to pre
